Puerto Princesa To Port Barton
How to Get from Puerto Princesa to Port Barton
Port Barton, San Vicente's laid-back beach village, is about 3 hours by road from Puerto Princesa — roughly 2 hours up the national highway, then a final winding stretch over the hills to the coast. There's no airport in Port Barton, so the van is the standard way in for travelers landing at Puerto Princesa International Airport.
